  15. Just a reminder to NeXT that some of us would like to be able to modify
  16. the supplied shared libraries. This would enable us to do some cool things,
  17. like replacing the FontPanel object with a customized user-friendlier one
  18. that would automagically in all applications.
  19.  
  20. It may be the case that modifying objects that are themselves subclassed
  21. causes the subclasses to break, but it would be nice to find out!
